Tandberg Fasett Loudspeakers
Scandic design space age audiophile UFO
Today we present you a rare find, The Tandberg Fasett loudspeakers. If Darth Vader had to pick speakers for his Star Wars vessel, no doubt he picked those.
Designed in the 1970s by the Norwegian brand Tandberg, they are iconic for their unique geometric shape and high-quality sound. These compact speakers feature a distinctive dodecahedral (faceted) design, which not only gives them a futuristic aesthetic but also helps with sound dispersion for a more immersive audio experience.
Each Fasett speaker typically includes a 5-inch mid/bass driver and a 2.25-inch tweeter, providing clear highs and balanced mids. The cabinet is made of rigid plastic with a foam front, contributing to a controlled resonance and a relatively neutral sound profile. They existed in black as here, in cream white, and of course, in pop orange.
Despite their small size, the Fasett speakers deliver surprisingly rich and detailed audio, making them a favorite among audiophiles and design enthusiasts for comfy, minimal and compact vintage setups.
Originally intended for wall or shelf mounting, they were often paired with Tandberg’s high-end receivers and amplifiers. Their Scandinavian minimalist aesthetic and excellent sound quality make them a sought-after collector's item today, marrying vintage space age design and refined audio quality.
Tested, cleaned, deoxydized. Cables included.
Perfect working condition, see the photo gallery for cosmetic signs of patina and age.
